Visione Mistica, original 36x48 contemporary landscape
Located in Spring Lake, NJ
Visione Mistica, Mystical Vision, is an introspective, contemporary, original oil painting reminiscent of the 1960s, resplendent with explosive colors and imagery that commands both attention and consideration. The 36x48 scale of the dynamic landscape, combined with the magical reds, could carry any neutral room that's calling for a pop of joy and color! The artist has gallery wrapped this contemporary work of art on a stretcher with a 1.5" return to keep a transitional, open feeling throughout the painting. Alternately, it could be framed if you prefer a larger overall size for your space. Artist Dmitri Wright is the Director of the Weir Farm National Historic Site Art Academy where he teaches art in addition to teaching at the venerable Florence Griswold...

"Man Overboard", oil painting, figurative, man, woman, bikini, recline, gaze
Located in Toronto, Ontario
"Man Overboard" is an oil painting with chalk and graphite on wood panel, and measures 16" high by 12" wide. It is finished with a clear resin across the surface, lending the artwork a particular warmth and liquidity that is rare and lovely to behold. Typical of the artist, the painting is a mystery despite its apparent simplicity – a woman wearing part of her bikini stretches out beside a pool or body of water, while another figure hovers nearby. The title Man Overboard would suggest the woman's pose and partial nudity have completely derailed the man's intentions – perhaps driven him to distraction. Note the restrained color palette, the subtle toning of the wood surface, the bodies rendered and bodies suggested. The surface is very interesting – drawn lines and painterly brushstrokes to be sure, but also the toned wood coming through as color and texture. All of it held, as if in time, by the resin layer acting as a lens to both transmit this picture and admit light to the picture. A true artifact.

Boston Modernist Painting Floral Foliage Collage German Expressionist Karl Zerbe
By Karl Zerbe
Located in Surfside, FL
Karl Zerbe (1903-1972)
A mixed-media Painting collage of mod neon colored leaves on canvas with parchment backing.
Hand signed "Zerbe" bottom left and dated bottom right 1965-65.
Dimensions: Collage: 36 in tall x 24 in wide. Frame: 40 in tall x 28 in wide.
Karl Zerbe (1903 – 1972) was a German-born American realist painter and educator.
Karl Zerbe was born on September 16, 1903 in Berlin, Germany. The family lived in Paris, France from 1904–1914, where his father was an executive in an electrical supply concern. In 1914 they moved to Frankfurt, Germany where they lived until 1920. Karl Zerbe studied chemistry in 1920 at the Technische Hochschule in Friedberg, Germany.
From 1921 until 1923 he lived in Munich, where he studied painting at the Debschitz School, mainly under Josef Eberz. From 1924 until 1926 Karl Zerbe worked and traveled in Italy on a fellowship from the City of Munich. In 1932 his oil painting titled, ‘’Herbstgarten’’ (autumnal garden), of 1929, was acquired by the National-Gallery, Berlin; in 1937, the painting was destroyed by the Nazis as "Degenerate art." Entartete Kunst was what they deemed all the Avant Garde, Modernism Movements. In the visual arts, sucf innovations as Expressionism, Fauvism, Cubism, Dada, Bauhaus, Post Impressionism were disdained. Artists such as Käthe Kollwitz, Otto Dix, George Grosz, Max Beckmann, Max Ernst, Oskar Kokoschka, El Lissitzky, Franz and Marc Chagall were among those who despite having made significant contributions to the German modernist movement were banned even if they were not necessarily Jewish.
From 1937 until 1955, Karl Zerbe was the head of the Department of Painting, School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. In 1939 Karl Zerbe became a U.S. citizen and the same year for the first time he used encaustic. He joined the faculty in the Department of Art and Art History at Florida State University in 1955, where he taught until his death.
He was grouped together with the Boston artists Kahlil Gibran (bronze sculpture), Jack Levine and Hyman Bloom as a key member of the Boston Expressionist school of painting, and through his teaching influenced a generation of painters,[including, among others, David Aronson, Bernard Chaet, Reed Kay, Arthur Polonsky, Jack Kramer, Barbara Swan, Andrew Kooistra, and Lois Tarlow.

"Sunrise" Minimalist Abstract Expressionist Contemporary Landscape by Zion Mor
Located in Carmel, CA
"Sunrise," a stunning contemporary abstract landscape by Zion, captures the essence of minimalism within a vibrant color palette of red, yellow, and white. Sized perfectly to command attention, this piece embodies Zion's unique architectural approach to art. Every line, meticulously applied, holds its own weight and contributes to the painting's overall balance and harmony.
At the core of this technical masterpiece lies a carefully executed play between what is articulated and what is left unsaid. The powerful, vibrant black linework accentuates the rich hues of red and yellow, drawing the viewer into its intricate depths. Yet it is the untouched canvas that lends the work its sense of depth and dimension, allowing the spectator to complete the narrative in their own imagination.

Bring audacious experiments with color and textures to your living room, dining room or home office. Abstract paintings, large or small, will stand out in your space, encouraging conversation and introducing a museum-like atmosphere that’s welcoming and conducive to creating memorable gatherings.
Abstract art has origins in 19th-century Europe, but it came into its own as a significant movement during the 20th century. Early practitioners of abstraction included Wassily Kandinsky, although painters were exploring nonfigurative art prior to the influential Russian artist’s efforts, which were inspired by music and religion. Abstract painters endeavored to create works that didn’t focus on the outside world’s conventional subjects, and even when artists depicted realistic subjects, they worked in an abstract mode to do so.
In 1940s-era New York City, a group of painters working in the abstract mode created radical work that looked to European avant-garde artists as well as to the art of ancient cultures, prioritizing improvisation, immediacy and direct personal expression. While they were never formally affiliated with one another, we know them today as Abstract Expressionists.
The male contingent of the Abstract Expressionists, which includes Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning and Robert Motherwell, is frequently cited in discussing leading figures of this internationally influential postwar art movement. However, the women of Abstract Expressionism, such as Helen Frankenthaler, Lee Krasner, Joan Mitchell and others, were equally involved in the art world of the time. Sexism, family obligations and societal pressures contributed to a long history of their being overlooked, but the female Abstract Expressionists experimented vigorously, developed their own style and produced significant bodies of work.
Draw your guests into abstract oil paintings across different eras and countries of origin. On 1stDibs, you’ll find an expansive range of abstract paintings along with a guide on how to arrange your wonderful new wall art.
If you’re working with a small living space, a colorful, oversize work can create depth in a given room, but there isn’t any need to overwhelm your interior with a sprawling pièce de résistance. Colorful abstractions of any size can pop against a white wall in your living room, but if you’re working with a colored backdrop, you may wish to stick to colors that complement the decor that is already in the space. Alternatively, let your painting make a statement on its own, regardless of its surroundings, or group it, gallery-style, with other works.
